Oh Heroin, heroin
And cocaine, cocaine
Well I loved them both
But they took my life, they took my friends
They won`t give em back, but I want em back
Oh give em back now
And what has it got me
Just some teeth I can`t chew
my favourite cereal with
Oh being cool, and looking good
Keith Richards and Lenny Bruce
And all of them, well I give up
Sometimes I get sad, or I`ll get mad
About where I should be, and where I am
Don`t wanna go back
And where has it got me
but five years older now
Washing dishes in a restaurant
Well my friend Robert, he can`t stop
His teeth are falling out
And he`s living at his mom`s
I guess I`m lucky I`m alive, yea I`m lucky I`m alive
Coz I should be dead, well I have been dead
But I`m not now, no
But what has it got me
Just some teeth I can`t chew
my favourite cereal with
Yea where has it got me
but five years older now
Working in a fucking restaurant
Oh Heroin, heroin
And cocaine, cocaine
Well I loved them both
